Home area manager

The Home Area Manager (HAM) is connected to the internet-modem and the devices in the home. This gateway forms the heart of the Smart Homes, the central point where the devices come together in a home and communicate with each another.

The innovative smart plug makes it possible to measure the energy consumption of individual appliances and to switch them on and off remotely (anywhere in the world where one has access to the internet).

The fifthplay DIN-rail plug is a gateway too. Customers can use it from the central DIN-rail box to meter or switch electrical circuits and devices. This could involve, for example, the air-conditioning, electric hob, boiler, electric heating, exterior lighting, etc.

A smart thermostat for controlling the heating remotely.
Just like the smart plugs, the smart thermostat is connected to the network (via the fifthplay gateway). This enables Smart Home users to record and manage their temperature.

Managing Smart Homes over the internet.
Thanks to the fifthplay web application, users can operate and adjust their Smart Home from wherever they are.

Smartphone application

For users who are always on the move. We have developed a smartphone application for users who are always on the move. A version for each operating system. Whether it is an iPhone, a Windows phone or an Android device, the fifthplay Smartphone application works on any system.

Automatic Appliance Detection

Experience learns that more than 50% of the users of smart plugs expect an automatic appliance identification when they are connecting an appliance.

Smart Switches that control lighting remotely. A smart switch is a switch connected to the fifthplay gateway. It enables easy remote control of the lighting. The smart switch exists in both a physical form and on a smartphone.

Over the years, different types of meters have been installed in homes. Analogue meters, pulse meters and smart meters. Fifthplay has built solutions for all these meter types, which can make either a wired or a wireless connection with the fifthplay Gateway. For example, we establish links via optical sensors, pulse sensors, the P1 port (or MBUS with smart meters) or induction clamps.

Plug-and-play solution for devices already installed. Electrical wiring cannot always be interrupted. That is why fifthplay supplies an induction clamp as plug-and-play solution. This clamp is placed around an electrical cable and because it measures voltage and current simultaneously, it provides very high accuracy at a low cost. The fifthplay Induction Clamp solution can be used on installations from 0 to 64 amperes.
